7Sale and Purchase of the License Interest

 

7.1Acquisition of the License Interest by the Purchaser

 

(a)The Purchaser will be entitled to acquire the License Interest from the Seller by:

 

(i)paying the Purchase Price to the Seller;

 

(ii)committing to the guaranteed work program and the total guaranteed expenditure subject to which the License has been or will be granted as set out in the Bidding Document without variation or extension, unless application for such variation or extension is approved prior in writing by the Seller or unless the Purchaser has reasonable excuse for such variation or extension due to a force majeure circumstance (the “Guaranteed Work Program”); and

 

(iii)granting the Royalty Interest to the Seller by execution of the Royalty Grant Deed; and

 

(b)subject to Completion, the Purchaser agrees to assume all of the obligations and liabilities arising in relation to the License including all work and expenditure obligations in respect of the Guaranteed Work Program on and from the Completion Date.

 

7.2The Purchaser may farm out

 

The Purchaser may assign, in whole or in part, to one or more parties, any of its rights under this Deed to enable it to satisfy the License commitments or any other obligation under this Deed or otherwise provided that any such assignee assumes the assigned part of the Purchaser’s obligations and liabilities under this Deed, and the Seller agrees to do all acts, matters or things required by the Purchaser to give effect to the acquisition of such an interest by a third party.

 

7.3Royalty Interest

 

Subject to Completion, the Purchaser is deemed to have granted to the Seller the Royalty Interest pursuant to the Royalty Grant Deed. The Royalty Interest will be enduring and will continue until the whole of the License has been relinquished or terminated. The Royalty Interest will apply in the event the License is relinquished and then a new license is granted to the Purchaser during a one-year period. To the extent that the Purchaser wishes to assign, sell or otherwise dispose of its interest in the License to a third party the Purchaser must ensure that that third party purchaser takes its interest subject to the Royalty Interest.

 

7.4Reversion of License Interest to the Seller

 

If the Purchaser fails in any material way to perform the Guaranteed Work Program and the Purchaser has failed to obtain a variation of the Guaranteed Work Program from the Minister or the relevant Government Agency to:

 

(a)a waiver of the breach; or

 

(b)an extension of time to rectify such breach,

  

Page | 10
 

  

Discovery Energy/Liberty - Novation Deed - Sale and Purchase Agreement
- Confidential dated 15 May 2012
 

 

then the Seller is entitled to request that the Purchaser transfers the License Interest back to the Seller. Prior to exercising such right of reversion, the Seller agrees to issue a Notice to the Purchaser requesting that the Purchaser remedies the default within 90 days after the date of the Notice. If the Purchaser fails to remedy the default within this period, the Seller may exercise its right of reversion by further Notice to the Purchaser. Forthwith upon receiving such Notice the Purchaser agrees to execute and deliver a transfer of the License Interest to the Seller and execute and deliver such other documents reasonably required by the Seller to vest full possession and benefit of the License Interest in the Seller. In such event, the Purchaser also agrees to indemnify the Seller against and hold the Seller harmless from all claims arising in respect of works performed by the Purchaser prior to the date of such reversion. Any variation to the Guaranteed Work Program that reduces the aggregate investment commitment or extends the initial term beyond six months requires consent from the Seller, which cannot be unreasonably withheld.

 

 

 

8Seller’s Warranties
